People act like Saban is such a genius, but it's not that hard when you have considerably better talent than everyone you play.

He also develops those players better than anyone, recruits those players and puts those players in positions to win. Obvious he needs great players to do what he's doing, but he's the best coach in CFB by a fair amount.

He's the best administrator in college football. From an x's and o's standpoint he's nothing special at all.

I'm not saying he's a genius and I realize he (and the rest of the SEC) stretch recruiting rules with oversigning and such. But the NFL will call. Or what if USC, Texas, or some other big time school pulls up with a dumptruck full of money? I seriously doubt Saban is still at Alabama by 2020.

From an innovation stand point I suppose not. Offense is fairly simple, defensively from an xs and os stand point he's one of the top. He's the best defensive coach at probably every aspect in college football. And he has his hand on the offense so that it fits his team and what he's trying to do.

I always thought Te'o was like a better Laurinaitis, but after this showing, I've realized I was wrong. I get that it's Alabama, but I rather have a guy jumping piles than one that can't even get to them.

He has to be good defensively, or else Kirby Smart would be a HC at a big school by now. I think it's a common viewpoint that Saban is the mastermind behind the Bama defense, and that's why Smart isn't as sought after.
